Training

Only 78% of participants successfully complete a Tough Mudder course. You’ll need to do serious training if you want to be one of them. Each Tough Mudder course will have varying terrain, mud, water, ropes, walls, and fire designed to push you to your limit.

Tough Mudder Boot Camp combines resistance training with high-intensity cardiovascular exercises to prepare you for the challenges you’ll face on a Tough Mudder course. This program delivers an intense mix of cardio and strength training in what some people call “circuit training.” We call it Boot Camp. The program is entirely flexible and can be tailored to the time you have available and your level of fitness.

UA Gear - Breathable, sweat-and-moisture-wicking clothes are Under Armour’s thing. And since sweat, water and mud are our thing, you’re definitely going to want to grab some UA Gear here.

Gloves - Gloves are optional, but some people swear by them. If you do decide to go with a pair, be sure to pick durable ones that prevent rope burn and splinters. Check out ours here.
